Finding a Great Book

When you find a great book, you don’t want to put it down. You want to keep reading it, and you don’t want it to end either. The world captivates your mind–makes it dance with imagination. The author’s voice speaks to you personally. It’s as if the author is talking to you directly–as if the book was meant for you.

When you find a great book, you are inspired to read more books by the same author. You want to stockpile their books and pour through every last word until they’ve been read.

And when an author writes a series, you to want read the books from beginning to end. And it all began with a great book.

To find a great book is like a treasure hunt. You’ll pick up lots of books along the way to find it. Maybe they’re all great, but which is great to you?

Sometimes you find a great book, and it takes everything out of you to finish it. It was a marathon-of-a-read–an uphill battle that tugged on your heart, drew on your emotions. Even if you don’t get to author’s other books, you remember this one. It left an impression on your mind that will last forever.
